I notice you set your time zone to GMT -4.00.

Would it not make much more sense to set it to the universally recognised GMT time zone?

EST is the most logical system. Why? I'll tell you:

1)Surevey said that most NS users are in the US.

2)EST is the most populated timezone in the US.

Thus, logic would stand that EST will please the largest number. Whats more, since EST is used so often, most people are used to to doing the conversion.

Yes, but GMT is were it all originates from.

It's far more logical to start from that time point. 8)
